Reporting Student absence

Reporting Student absence

From 14th March 2025, the only method for reporting your child’s absence will be through the Arbor Parent Portal App. Using the Arbor Parent Portal App is quick and easy, and it is now our preferred way for parents to communicate absence reasons to the school. Benefits of the Arbor Parent Portal App: Update student/parent details, Top up dinner money, Sign up for trips and clubs, Check your child’s attendance, Access school reports, and now reporting absences. Additionally, our new school app, KEVI Handsworth Wood Girls (via Reach More Parents), will be our primary platform for sharing school-related updates and information. Please note that the absence reporting feature will no longer be available on other platforms, and we will no longer monitor absences reported via Studybugs, even if you still have access to it. Thank you for your cooperation.
